Why do the media keep saying this?
GRAHAM HAS TO BE DEFEATED!!
Weird the point him out when 5 others did as well. I hope this goes on for months if not years.
They use the term fungibly.
He joined other Repubs....but for a different reason.
Effer is a freakin SNAKE!! @$$hole!!
Same crap they pulled with Kavanagh.
Republicans are part of the enemy, that’s why I left that useless party long ago. Now I can stop voting for them too since there are no real elections anymore.
Graham switched his vote to aye because you have to be on the winning side of an issue to call for a re-vote. It was a strategic move, not an anti-Trump move.
I will reserve judgement until we hear from him. Why would be change his mind only after seeing how the vote went? Must be a reason — I think it is a chess move of some kind...I hope.
Right. Like "conservative Justice Roberts sided with..."
I searched an old topic and saw "the conservative website Drudge Report...." That dated it.
At least they seem to have stopped saying it. But media is still stuck on "the right wing Fox News said...."
Trial first, witnesses after !!!
Time to appeal to the Supreme Court !
Graham got threatened. Public threat was had to do with the Georgia steal.
Privately, who knows what the threat was.
Linda must go.
@ByronYork
If Senate goes ahead with witnesses, there will have to be individual votes to call each witness. Democrats, plus Romney et al, can call whoever they want. Can also vote down any or all Trump requests for witnesses. Anger ahead.
What is going on with all the Freepers running around with their hair on fire? Lindsey knows more than any of us what’s going on with his vote. Take a deep breath, let it out, relax, and see why.
Chill.
The idea is to drag this out for as long as possible so the corrupt media can continue the propaganda that there was an insurrection, and there is no evidence of election fraud. They want to keep this going in case SCOTUS rules in Trump’s favor.
How about having the ability to cross examine and humiliate?
This was the plan all along. Just get into the Senate and turn it into another months-long Trump-bashing football. They’ll say they can’t do the work of the people because they’re thoroughly engaged in investigating the “insurrection Trump orchestrated.”
“Witnesses.” I doubt we’ll hear many genuine ones. But once we hear the first we’ll never hear the end of them until enough Republicans signal that they’ll vote with the Democrats to “convict” a man who is already out of office.
..... Well ... Looks like the unconstitutional trial will now conveniently last until the summer or even later. This is now just a diversion and is Russia Collusion Part Deux .... With the exception that the President no longer the President ... What a Joke .....
The Rats rested.
Too late for witnesses.
I am mindful that Lindsay Graham loves to take the main chance, for example, in the Cavanaugh hearing he stole the show and he will no doubt try to do the same thing here. We shall see.
Meanwhile a sham impeachment trial becomes burlesque flirting with tragedy. At the end of the day one more institution will have entirely lost whatever confidence the people had left for it
